Julian Owens
Mission Viejo High School
The senior free safety had a fourth-quarter interception that led to the game-winning field goal with 29 seconds left and 11 total tackles in the Diablos’ 12-10 victory at Tesoro in the South Coast League. Owens’ tackle total included two graded as “big hits” on the Diablos’ weekly defensive statistical chart. “He had a huge game,” Mission Viejo coach Bob Johnson said of the two-year starter. “(Our) defense has been playing really strong.”
